May’n has become someone like a connoisseur of good food, having tried the many delicacies around Asia. Curiosity overcame our sense and casually, We asked May’n for recommendation to delicious food in Japan.

“I always try to copy their recipe and make it at home! They use 100% pork and it tastes lighter than traditional hamburg. The hamburg, together with the mustard sauce, and eggs on the side is my favourite. Their baguette is also delicious. I recommend the bread instead of the rice!”

Hamburg Will(ハンバーグ ウィル)?

There are many different variations of Hamburgers served in the world, many in fast-food restaurants, diners and even high-end restaurants. In Japan, where rice is the favoured staple instead of bread, many places serve the hamburgers with just the patty.

Hamburg Will takes hamburgers to the next level, using 100% premium Iwate pork. The restaurant is known to use Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) pork, which is known to be disease-free, free from a known stink that most pork has and gives you a refreshing after-taste.

On her recommendation, WOW Japan visited Hamburg Will. This lovely restaurant can be found in Shinjuku, in walking distance of Shinjuku National Garden. We found ourselves in a long queue when we arrived at lunch time.

Time to enjoy

To make the best hamburger, Hamburg Will arranges pork loin, ribs, belly and cheeks with different mincing methods for each part. Barley, yoghurt and onions are then added to the meat and knead into hamburgers. It is said to create a soft and mild taste to the burgers.

Built to your preferences, you can enjoy the hamburgers with three different types of sauces. Demi-glace, Yuzu-pepper sauce and cream mustard sauce. We decided to go with the Demi-glace this time to see how well the hamburger goes with a classic favourite flavour.

Our meat is here!

Finishing our starters, we shall prepare our hearts for the main, the Hamburger! You can select either soup, bread or rice to go with this burger. Take a look at this delicious piece of meat drenched with demi-glace sauce. You can also order an additional soft-boiled egg to go with your meal which is absolutely FREE.
